I don’t know how to stop it. But after lot of hard work, I get into a good school. But with no schol. And I have been debating with myself whether to postpone my MBA for a year nor not. I am going crazy analyzing the pros and cons of doing MBA this vis a vis next year.
Without schol, I would end up with a good debt. I am saving from last three years. And have approx 65% of the total amount that I would need in those two years. Many would say that I would be graduating with no significant debt. But that’s not the only worry that I have. I have some responsibilities that would require some money. If I go ahead with my MBA, I would not be able to fulfill them. Will my family feel bad? No.. They are quite supportive about this entire MBA thing. But I am feeling guilt that I would be spending a whole lot of cash on myself. Even that is meant for education doesn’t matter.
Now if I postpone my MBA for next year, I would be 33 by the time I graduate. I would a older. Even now I feel that I be one of the senior most person in the class. Even graduating at 32 would make it difficult to compete against the younger ones.
Aahhh.. A little scholarship would have definitely helped...
Sometimes I feel that I should stop thinking. Just stop it. Postpone my decision for a fortnight or so.. I still have to get my Visa done. And that will not happen for at least a month now. I guess taking 10-15 days out of this "vicious cycle" would give me a better perspective of the things..
So hers my plan:
Dont think about whether I want to do MBA or not this year for atleast another 10 days.
Talk with friends, relatives, colleagues about their career choices.
Think what I actually want to do in the life.
That’s it.. No more thinking about the decision..
